Research on and Design of Assembly Line Monitor and Control System Based on PC

Abstract:

A control system is developed based on PC, which could collect real-time data and monitor the equipments state for assembly line. The software platform is C#. The technology of sensors, PLC, computer are integrated, and OPC technology is used based on the idea of configuration software to achieve an automatic monitoring system. The data of PLC can be exchanged through the database system integrated in PC. The complex calculation, friendly man-machine interface are achieved in the system. Through monitoring the equipment and environment on the shop floor on-line, the causes of the problems in automatic assembly line can be accurately analyzed in time to make a quick deal. The result shows that the PC-based monitoring system is easy to control, convenient to operate and low-cost to develop and run.
